How I can help.
What kinds of problems do I treat?
I particularly love treating anxiety problems and find that they are incredibly responsive to quality therapy! My area of study in school was within social anxiety disorder, selective mutism and childhood OCD. These kinds of problems have BIG impact on your child’s well-being and wreak havoc on families. Let’s work together to come up with solutions.
Common Treatment Areas:
- Selective Mutism and Social Phobia
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
- Difficulty Following Instructions/Accepting Decisions
- Depression
- School-Based Behavioral and Academic Problems
- Bedtime Problems and Sleep Disorders
- Sibling Relationships
- Phobic Concerns
- Habits (hair pulling, skin picking, fingernail biting, and thumb sucking)
- Difficulties with adjustment (Relocation, divorce, loss, significant changes in the family)
- Trauma
- ADHD
- Adoption and Blended Families
Educational Services:
I provide trainings to mental health professionals and school-based professionals. These trainings include understanding how mental health conditions affect classroom functioning. Also, I provide trainings to professionals on selective mutism, school refusal, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Contact me to inquire about these training opportunities.
